From: Evgeny Kuznetsov <ext-eugeny.kuznetsov at nokia.com>

Value of "isr_reg" pointer is depend on configuration and GPIO method.
Potentially it may have NULL value and it is dereferenced later
in code. If pointer is NULL there is some kernel issue.
Warning and exit from function are added in this case.
Also compilation check is added for correct architecture
configuration.
